There is the micro golden bowl that Solomon spoke of,
then there is the macro golden bowl that is our Heliosphere
and we exist along the V-formation of a solar trinity:
Sun, Moon, and Earth—the celestial trio of gold, silver, and bronze
the scientist tries to gauge their size and distance
while the poet, who senses their sympathetic resonance,
measures them by their attraction and compatibility
observing the loving caress of each one upon the other two
like an astronomical mobile dangling from the ceiling of space
as though a titanic hand holds the Earth on its axial pole
whizzing the Moon around it like a giant Matraca
churning them both around the Sun like the blades of a mixing bowl
their relationship is dynamic—in perpetual motion
thanks to the Moon, our tides ebb and flow, our crops grow,
it coordinates the seasons, absorbing and reflecting waves of light and sound,
the music of the spheres harmonizes our existence to the pulse of life
everything is in sync: our breathing, our heartbeat, our brainwave cycles
our sleep and wakefulness, our circadian rhythms, our growth and decline
choreographed by the rotation of the Sun, the orbits of the Earth and Moon
the hydrologic cycle, the photosynthetic process, the Schumann frequency
planet Earth is one-of-a-kind with its beat and pulse, its night and day,
there is no other like her in the confines of this universe
and humans are likewise unique in their compatibility with this Life--
each an individual pattern in the Field, a rhythm of the Sphere
